Successfully completing a 100 mile trail run has been a goal since 1998. Each year I have attempted to run one and have fallen short. As an experiment of one, I'm recording my training and hoping that it will eventually document the successful completion of a 100 mile trailrace.

Notes

Just made my goal of 1300 miles for the year. Snowing and blowing as I started out this morning - still great to be out and moving. The most difficult part of the run was getting out of the door.

Ran 276 times in 2008 or 75% of the days, that's 5 out of 7. Hope to get leaner and lighter in 2009. Run more days and increase total mileage. Let's shoot for 1600 in 2009.
